HelpRe: Theodore vs Theodora
in reply to a message by Bex
I don't care for Theodore. I think it is incurably dorky (which is also my impression of Tobias and Toby, ugh). I like Theodor and Teodor more, but not enough to really sing their praises.
Theodora, I love, although my disclaimer is that I pronounce it tay-, not thee- (also Theda as ted-a). So thee-odora is always a bit disappointing to me. I know it's not wrong but it takes the beauty out of it for me.
"Do you know how a man makes his way here? By brilliance of genius or the cunning use of corruption.
You must cut a path through this mess of men like a cannon-ball, or creep among them like a pestilence."
Balzac
